The very traditional English morning suit is giving way to the more modern versions and the results are simply stunning.
The Ascot name has been picked up in the states and is now used to describe the mixture of elegant styling from the old
English morning suit right through to the ultra modern style depicted below.
Many women find that all men look better in Ascot tuxedos. But contrary to appearances, not all tuxedos are alike. Subtle
differences in jackets, collars and pant styles can be flattering or fatal, depending on your body type. Picking the
Ascot tuxedos best suited for your body type can be a tricky business !

Some advice on what Ascot tuxedos to wear
Short and slender gentlemen...
should look for single breasted jackets with long lines (it elongates the body) and wide peak lapels. Other stylish
options include wearing a double breasted tuxedo jacket. Selection of the right pant style is key, too. Reverse,
double pleated trousers are a good choice for gentlemen with short, slender frames. The perfect pant leg should
always break slightly on top of the shoe and angle a bit downward in back. This body type can wear Ascot tuxedos vests and ties
in colors and patterns.
Short and stocky gentlemen...
with athletic or muscular body types look best in tuxedo jackets with slim collars. The top button should fall at
the small of the waist to give the torso a leaner look. Pants should extend as low as possible on the foot, angled
slightly in the back to elongate the leg. Be sure to avoid too much of a break on the foot, otherwise the pant will
look sloppy. Choose colorful vests and ties carefully.
Tall and slim gentlemen...
look well in just about every tuxedo style! An especially good choice is a double breasted tuxedo with broad
shoulders and a suppressed waist. Jacket buttons closed up high on the waistline look especially good and a high
shoulder line is better than a natural one. Garments should be full, while still following the lines of the body
and trousers should have a higher rise with more of a break in the pant. This body type can easily wear vests and
ties in colors and patterns.
